    Abstract: A battery cell may include an electrolyte, a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. One or both of the first electrode and the second electrode may include a multifunctional safety layer interposed between an electrode layer and a current collector. The multifunctional safety layer may include a protective layer and a safety layer. The safety layer may respond to a first trigger by interrupting current flow within the battery cell. The protective layer may prevent a reaction between the safety layer and the electrolyte and/or the electrode layer of the battery cell. The protective layer may respond to a second trigger by exposing the safety layer to the electrolyte and/or the electrode layer of the battery cell. The resulting physical and/or chemical reactions may interrupt the current flow in the battery cell.

    Abstract: An anode for an energy storage device includes a current collector having an electrically conductive layer, a first surface characterized by a first pattern, and a second surface characterized by a complementary second pattern. The anode further includes a patterned lithium storage structure comprising a continuous porous lithium storage layer disposed over the current collector in a pattern corresponding to the first pattern. A method of making an anode for use in an energy storage device includes providing a current collector having an electrically conductive layer, a first surface characterized by a first pattern, and a second surface characterized by a complementary second pattern. A continuous porous lithium storage layer is formed by chemical vapor deposition over the first surface by exposing the current collector to a lithium storage material precursor gas.

    Abstract: An electrolytic solution for a copper foil, and the preparation and use of an electrolytic copper foil. The electrolytic solution for a copper foil comprises an additive, wherein the additive comprises an inhibitor and an auxiliary agent. The auxiliary agent comprises at least one of polystyrene sulfonate, polyethylene sulfonate, alkyl sulfonate and alkylbenzene sulfonate, wherein both the alkyl sulfonate and the alkyl benzene sulfonate have ≥12 carbon atoms. By means of simple and convenient chemical regulation and control means such as the selection and combination of additives for an electrolytic (electroplating) solution, a pre-electroplated copper material resulting from electroplating using the electrolytic solution can form a high-proportion annealing twin boundary after a heat treatment at a temperature of ≥200° C., and has the unique mechanical characteristic of “annealing-induced strengthening and toughening”.
